Lucky you! You have another chance to win a gift card from the nice folks over at Home Depot! Last year we gave away a $100 gift card just in time for Christmas.
This year, Home Depot Foundation is working to raise money through store sales to preserve the legacy of Dr Martin Luther King (read below) and to increase awareness, they want to give one of our readers a $50 gift card to get started on that home project or repair! You might wonder how HD and MLK are connected — well, Home Depot is headquartered in Atlanta, GA which is also the home of the King family and The King Center.
Through Feb. 28, The Home Depot is offering a commemorative “Dream” gift card celebrating the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. When consumers purchase the collector’s edition “Dream” gift card, The Home Depot will donate five percent of all sales to the Center for Civil and Human Rights, up to $1 million dollars. The donation will assist in the building of a permanent exhibition home for his personal writings and papers.
The collection of original documents by Dr. King includes more than 10,000 items, among them 7,000 handwritten notes spanning from 1946 to 1968. They include drafts of his “I Have a Dream” speech, his “Letter from a Birmingham Jail,” other theological writings and his Nobel Peace Prize addresses. The King Papers will be part of the exhibition offering of The Center for Civil and Human Rights. The Dream cards can be purchased at any store, or online at www.homedepot.com/dream.
To be entered to win, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post (click the “Comments” link below).
In honor of the MLK Jr. National Day of Service, tell us about your most recent experience with community service (donations, volunteering, social awareness campaigns). If you’ve not participated in a service project recently, let us know what you’d be most interested in doing, or the community group/issue you’d be most interested in working with!
We love to give back to our community and hope to spread some ideas!
We will pick a winner next Wednesday! Come back to see if it’s YOU!
GOOD LUCK!
